“We analyzed the numbers of box cutter related accidents and determined...a 70%
decrease in the total number of box cutter related accidents over the previous year
for the same period without full conversion."

We identified the need and were the first to invent a solution!

We wrote the book many times over on Safety Cutters and everyday we write another
chapter with thousands of satisfied users, saving companies thousands of dollars
in the process.

In 1950, we invented the original “Handy Cutter” flat box cutter. This product has
established itself as one of the most useful tools in many walks of life, especially
the grocery store, retail and warehouse work environments.

Since then, we invented the first successful guarded safety cutter for cutting boxes.
Working closely with our original customers and field workers, we then designed
the first ergonomically tested safety carton cutter, using our design-centric approach
to development. The results were an extremely comfortable tool that prevented cramping
and repetitive motion injuries, as well as reduced the risk of direct cutter lacerations.

The effect on our customers was significant, in some cases up to 85%, reduction
in cutter related injuries as well as a dramatic reduction in workers compensation
claims. A further benefit due to the “merchandise protection geometry” of the cutting
guide, was to reduce merchandise “shrink / damage”, which amounted to countless
dollars in merchandise damage savings.

With each generation of improvement, our knowledge base of safety feature technologies
has only benefited our customers with our relentless drive to improve on each product
we produce. Therefore, our designers are constantly, looking to update and improve
the current product to be the best fit for our customers.
